  1. Hi shepard, the AF-501's are taper and the AF-201 is 0.335
  2. I just have no idea why they put that color in there... would have looked way cleaner without it. I will probably remove it on mine.
  3. Carl, I'm actually lucky, that wedge by Carl is raw, as you can see it's already showing signs of surface rust.... I don't know what would work on chrome!?
  4. There are definitely tons of fads in Japan, I know alllllllll about them (^_^). However I am very curious about MTI, so many pros play them and not a single one is paid to do so yet they are paid big bucks and by their own sponsors but don't play their wedges. Miyagi was a one man show much like Carlton and Sasaya and custom grinded every single one for every player, though I highly doubt that will be the case for the retails.
  5. I actually have two in the collection. a 57* and a 58* The one behind it, the Grind Studio, is so beautiful I have not hit it outside yet....
  6. New bags and headcovers will be coming out yes... no pics... yet (^_^).
  7. I knew it would come around for you (^_^), it's just that adjustment period I keep telling everyone about. (^_^)
  8. Yes I know the wedge well. It is very popular on the J-LPGA not JPGA. There are quite a few JLPGA girls using it. They push it towards the female crowd especially with it's graphics.
  9. Well there has been some mention of MTI here on the forum before. It's a wedge created by Cool Design Inc, a company created by Miyagi Yuuji, it has a very large tour following and in the last year eclipsed all other brands (even fourteen and vokey) as the most used wedge on the Japanese tour. MTI or Miyagi Tour Ism has announced a collaboration with Yokohama Rubber Company (PRGR in the golf world) to bring the wedges retail. There are basically two models one for a Digger/Deep Impact (Type D) and one for a Sweeper/Shallow Impact (Type S) and two lofts in each model (53 and 58). There is a lot of talk going around on sites in Japan as regular people have been dying to get their hands on MTI for a very very long time. Should be here in October!
  10. Now to refinish my Gauge Carl wedge.... (^_^)
  11. You can now join the official Epon FW fan club! (^_^) Remember too, the driver, having such a different feel sometimes needs an adjustment period. Good thing is you know that PT-6 inside out!
  12. Thanks everyone for their hard work. It was hard to choose winners: Results here: http://forum.tourspecgolf.com/index.ph...mp;f=1&id=2 Congratulations!
  13. It's very new, I just listed it this morning.... should have live clubs in soon. (^_^) Love the shape, looks very easy to hit!
  14. Give me a couple of hours... I'm updating the pro shop and the 48 series colors will be there...
  15. I had a raw 60* Seida Prototype sitting around that had picked up some rust over the summer. I've been working with my personal clubfitter to do some custom grinds and wedge finishing lately and we experimented with Perma Blue on the Seida, interesting result as we got it to look more cooper antique than a gun blue....
  16. Unfortunately that's all I can show right now.... Chris' avatar has another angle... teasers is all we can show... (^_^)
  17. Very limited availability, forged by Miura, retail for over 2100 a set. Also blades available (even rarer) and a driving iron:
  18. As far as I know most Gauge Japan's were also open 4* or so...
  19. Ai-chan has always hit a Tourstage TV-50 alpha Stiff shaft in all her drivers. That's the same shaft in there.
  20. Could be a new ViQ in the works... (^_^)
